I STAND CORRECTED

Jazz bassist John Leitham built his career by playing with some of the best: Woody Herman, Mel Torme, George Shearing, Peggy Lee, Doc Severinsen. One day several years ago, John Leitham disappeared and resurfaced as Jennifer Leitham.

Referred to by noted jazz critic Leonard Feather as the "left-handed virtuoso of the upright bass," this full-length documentary will spotlight the music career of Jennifer Jane Leitham while revealing her journey to happiness.

----------------------------------- "The
world that Leitham has moved in since the early '80s has been at the
center of the highest levels of jazz performance. More than 100
recordings as an A-list bassist, seven CDs of her own and appearances
with the likes of Gerry Mulligan, Joe Pass, Louis Bellson, Bill
Watrous, Cleo Laine and dozens of others, as well as long-term stints
with Mel Tormé, Doc Severinsen and the Woody Herman Thundering Herd
attest to the far-ranging versatility of her playing." --JazzTimes, 2009 - Don Heckman
